Scrumptious Baked Chicken and Potatoes Recipe

Scrumptious Baked Chicken and Potatoes Recipe

  • 5 pounds chicken parts
  • 1 cup water
  • 6 potatoes, quartered
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons crushed dried rosemary
  • 2 teaspoons crushed dried thyme
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Place the chicken pieces in a large baking dish; pour the water into the bottom of the dish. Arrange the potatoes around and over the chicken pieces. Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture; season with the rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  3. Bake the chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).
